Sorry wrong button :-o
The drivers that are included in lcdproc are:
# The following drivers are supported:
# bayrad, CFontz, CFontz633, CFontzPacket, curses, CwLnx, ea65,
# EyeboxOne, g15, glcdlib, glk, hd44780, icp_a106, imon, IOWarrior,
# irman, joy, lb216, lcdm001, lcterm, lirc, MD8800, ms6931, mtc_s16209x,
# MtxOrb, NoritakeVFD, picolcd, pyramid, sed1330, sed1520, serialPOS,
# serialVFD, sli, stv5730, svga, t6963, text, tyan, ula200, xosd
But I need imonlcd and not imon.
I found help on how to compile it with the needed driver. Just ./
configure --driver=imonlcd or something like that. I'd have to search
again.
As well in the Ubuntu 10.04 repos lcdproc came with imonlcd support.
So my question is if or how can I install the driver without having to
compile after each kernel upgrade?
Probably it would be best to have it in the squeeze backports?
Best regards
Ramon
